We already have setup our ConfigServer (Article : <a target="_blank" href="https://prashantblog.hashnode.dev/implementing-config-server-to-externalize-configuration-springboot-microservices">Implementing config server to externalize configuration | SpringBoot Microservices</a>).
Here we will setup our UserService microservice as Config Client so that it can read the configurations stored on the GitHub.
Step 1 → Add dependency “Config Client | SPRING CLOUD CONFIG“.
<pre><code class="lang-xml">&lt;dependency&gt;
 &lt;groupId&gt;org.springframework.cloud&lt;/groupId&gt;
 &lt;artifactId&gt;spring-cloud-starter-config&lt;/artifactId&gt;
&lt;/dependency&gt;
</code></pre>
Step 2 → Add configuration.
<pre><code class="lang-java">spring.config.import=configserver:http://localhost:8084
</code></pre>
We are now getting configuration from the Config Server.
